Yellow House Playschool
Are there any recent Yellow House Playschool families out there who would be willing to share your experience? Yellow House Playschool seems like a great play-based environment for our social 2.5 year old a couple mornings a week (she'll be 3 when she starts next school year). We read some very positive reviews of this program but most posts were from years ago, so we are wondering if anyone can share a more recent experience with the program. We're looking for a program that is play-based, not overly academic, progressive, queer-friendly, supports social-emotional growth, etc. Thank you!

We had our little one there with Jan and she/we loved it! The environment is small and nurturing. Jan's team is top rate. We miss those days and think of Jan often
We LOVE Yellow House! My son went there from 2015-2017, my 4 yo daughter is there now and my almost 2 yo will start there in the fall. The space is filled with all kinds of fun and has a comforting “homey” feel for the kids. It is largely play-based and they have everything imaginable for the kids to explore and play with. They have circle time as well as various regularly scheduled activities like dance, creative story-telling, show-and-tell, art, and music. Jan is excellent at balancing the business end of running the school and being a loving teacher. She does a great job of teaching the kids the fundamentals of being a good person and member of the community. The other teachers are also warm and attentive. Lastly, the other families with children at the school are wonderful. After pick-up you can usually find the kids playing in the front yard while the parents stand around and chat. I feel 100% confident each time I drop my daughter off at Yellow House that she will be well cared for and happy the entire time she’s there. Highly recommend!
